Our Dreamers Program will aim to help area high school students gain valuable knowledge and skill sets that allow them to create their own vision of success and achieve their dreams by following their own unique path. We launched our program at River View High School in September of 2023 and Mount View High School in August of 2024.
We plan to instill new skills and techniques such as marketing, event planning and organizing, and financial literacy by allowing our students to develop community service projects and events while also hearing from a variety of guest speakers!
Please join us in welcoming Kristen Calhoun-Riling to the team!
She is an English Teacher and Coach at Mount View High School. After graduating from Kristen River View High School in 2020, she obtained a bachelor’s degree in Secondary English Education from Concord University. Currently, she is studying at West Liberty University to obtain a masters degree in instructional design and technology.
“After graduating college, I decided to come back to McDowell County to help students pursue their dreams and offer them insights to their futures. With this opportunity with More LIFE, it provides me with resources and connections to encourage the students to expand their mindsets and reach their fullest potential!”
Welcome aboard, Kristen! We can wait to see what the future hold for you and the MVHS Dreamers!
